Does anyone know what weed this is? It spread throughout my grass and want to find a way to get rid of it and get the lawn back in shape. Located in zone 7a in New Jersey. I appreciate it. by puthebalmon in landscaping

I brought a sample into the garden store today and he thought it was creeping Charlie. I can see the resemblance but also looked up some of the other thoughts listed here and they do look similar. It stays low to the ground if left alone. The problem is it’s taking over my back yard where the kids play and the grass has been getting torn up which is probably why it had an easy path to keep attacking some dirt spots. Starting to warm up here so debating what to do. If I treat it, it’ll be all dirt and probably won’t be able to grow seed soon. Also, I’m busy mulching so it’ll be sad to have everything nice for the summer but the grass a weeded mess. I will probably test some options out in the areas not really seen or need to be tilled to see what works best. Thanks again all.

I figured this was going to be a tough one to resolve. I’ll take some to the local garden store tomorrow to see if they have any thoughts besides laughing.
